French to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / framework agreement
French term or phrase: réservé
Salut!

This appears in a framework agreement between an artist and a licensee in the section 'Résiliation par l’Artiste':

Une durée de licence plus longue prévue entre le Preneur de licence et l’Artiste, notamment dans la Convention relative à l’Œuvre, est réservé.

I am not sure if 'reserved' is correct here or not.

Any help appreciated!

Explanation:
Dear Mrs. Feline Asker (males don't usually post pictures of mogs) - either preface with the word of right, as per Phil G., or turn the whole para. around, as I thought was conventional cf. FHS Bridge's FRE/ENG glossary: réservé = unprejudiced; unaffected.

The artist and the licensee may agree a longer licence, for example under the ...

I'm not sure what they mean by "Convention relative à l’Œuvre". It could be the Universal Copyright Convention, or "the convention relating to the work".

So "réservé" means "they reserve the right to", which can be expressed more concisely as "they may".

neutral  Yvonne Gallagher: what a misogynistic comment "Dear Ms...." and surely against all Kudoz rules!//Polite???

  -> No. Not against the rules to use a polite form of address, but against the rules to fake identity, as I had been pulled up on. Obiter, no doubt you are aware of the conventional City notarial, ECJ and ECHR alternative translations I give.//Oh, pls!
agree  Daryo: BTW I'm a bit of a crazy photographer I would take pictures of anything that moves - or don't - including mogs, so your rule is not very reliable. End of digression.
